Chapter 612 (Page 1/2)

Lin Man thought that it was just her and Huo Qingci having dinner in the evening, so she didn't need to cook too many dishes. Stir-frying a plate of water lilies, steaming a fish, and making a fried chili egg pancake would be enough.

When Huo Qingci came back, the food had already been served, and there was a pot of freshly squeezed watermelon juice on the table.

Lin Man looked at Huo Qingci quietly, "What are you holding in your hand?"

"My mother dug shepherd's purse from the wild."

Lin Man took the bag and said, "Put it aside for now and eat it tomorrow."

Huo Qingci put his things away and washed his hands first. Then the two of them sat down and started eating. They chatted while eating.

"Qingci, I just traded salted duck eggs for fifteen kilograms of sweet potatoes from Aunt Wang."

"What are you exchanging for sweet potatoes?"

"Plant it! Come and dry the sweet potatoes for the kids! Although dried fruits are delicious, dried sweet potatoes are actually pretty good too."

Huo Qingci smiled and said, "My grandfather told me a few days ago that he used to eat sweet potatoes when he couldn't get enough to eat, and he ate so much that he vomited."

"I was wondering why you didn't grow sweet potatoes. It turns out Grandpa doesn't like them." Lin Man chuckled and continued, "I plan to dry the sweet potatoes in a couple of days. Today I dried beans, eggplant, and cucumber peels."

"Why did you think of drying vegetables again? We have space anyway, and we can still eat fresh eggplant, cucumbers and beans in winter."

"Although there are no restrictions on growing vegetables in the spatial spiritual fields, I don't want to grow out-of-season vegetables. They wouldn't be easy to eat after I grow them, so I might as well just make them into dried vegetables!"

Huo Qingci also knew that although grandpa knew that he had a space, the children did not know. Moreover, as children grew up, they were curious about everything and liked to get to the bottom of things. There were some things that they really could not know to avoid suspicion.

"Thank you for your hard work today. It's been another busy day!"

"Well, it was a busy day indeed. I spent the whole morning polishing stones and didn't have lunch until two or three o'clock."

"Polishing stone. What stone are you polishing?"

"I picked them up at the foot of Juling Peak. I picked up several large stones. One of them had lost its sand, so I polished it. Guess what I found?"

Huo Qingci smiled and replied, "Could it be that the stone you picked up is really raw jade?"

"Yes, it is indeed a raw jade stone. The piece I polished out is a glass-type Zhengyang Green Jadeite, and it is full green.

"Three hundred and eighty-two kilograms of raw stone, after polishing off the skin and cutting off the excess parts, what's left? "

"Three hundred and thirty kilograms of Zhengyang green jadeite material, that's worth a lot of money."

Lin Man smiled and replied, "Yes, it is indeed worth a lot of money. The color of Zhengyang Green Jade is only slightly inferior to that of Imperial Green.

I really like it and want to cut a piece off and ask a master craftsman to make a set of jade jewelry."

"If you like it, cut off a piece and I'll ask a master craftsman to make it into jewelry for you."

Lin Man still couldn't bear to cut such a large piece of full green jade into pieces and process it. She really couldn't bear to do that, so she decided to put it aside for the time being!

After dinner, Huo Qingci helped clean up. After that, Lin Man took him into the space to see the polished jade seeds.

Huo Qingci had never seen such a large piece of jade seed material. It would be a pity if it were cut into pieces to make jewelry.

Seeing Huo Qingci's eyes light up, Lin Man smiled and teased, "Do you want me to make you a set of jewelry too?"

Huo Qingci shook his head, "I always feel it's a pity to use it to make jewelry. In fact, it can be used to make a large ornament."
